Here's the video that Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton tried so hard to hide of him vacationing with his mistress in London that he allegedly lunged at an American tourist who recorded it. Share!

Exactly.
Any time any anchor ever asks a Democrat about Hasan Piker, the correct response is “Piker isn’t running for anything. Republicans have a literal candidate supported by Mike Johnson who refers to kids as cum trophies. You’re asking the wrong questions.”
HOLY SHIT - Tapper plays Johnson footage of GOP candidate Brandon Herrera describing moms as "cum trophies," mentions he called Nazi machine guns "the original ghetto blasters," & asks Johnson how he can support him. Mike says "he has run a very effective campaign ... that was his persona online"

Trump will probably stroke out or something before he leaves office, so punishment for him is up to his Maker. what I'm chiefly interested in is punishment for the people who have enabled him

And it doesn’t currently look like it will be sorted out quickly.

Charlie Kirk is on record saying Black Women “do not have the brain power to be take seriously.”
Of course, I don’t endorse or celebrate gun violence or murder—I’m also not sad this dude is gone. Sorry not sorry.
